Last week I talked about how I was skipping Christmas because I really don’t like the stress involved in the preparations.
I really don’t.
But, I think I was being a tad disingenuous (Dusty, you totally owe me a quarter…) because there is one aspect of this holiday season that I really do love.
Nope, it’s not all [...]

I’m up to my neck in gifts and candy canes and gift bags, right now. Every month I give away a limited number of goody bags to the troops and their families that come to my shows. But, I kind of went overboard because of the holiday. When you have an altruistic [...]

Today is gearing up to be a busy one for me. I’ve got appointments that will see me clear to bedtime, in preparation for the holiday weekend. And, in turn, this weekend will kick-off the busiest time of year for my business, with several holiday parties planned straight into the middle of next [...]

It’s only Tuesday, but this week seems to be dragging on and on.
You see, I have big plans, this weekend. A big date, if you will. What’s that you say, “But, Dizzy, you’re a married woman (gasp)! What will SSG Dizzy think?”
It’s alright, really. I already got my husband’s approval for [...]

Be aware, there are about 7 shopping days left before the Jolly Fat Dude arrives. I just wanted to remind those of you who act as Santa’s “authorized agent” to get moving. I just got done with my online holiday list (one thing that each family member “really, really, wanted”). I’ll admit [...]

Ah, I have returned to the blogosphere from what is now my regular weekend musical sabbatical and only the Flying Spaghetti Monster knows how much I’ve missed you guys.
The one thing I wish I missed is the fact that, these days, the great outdoors of Colorado has been colder than Condoleeza Rice! I’ll take [...]

I declared a war on Christmas about 17 years ago.
Well, not exactly a “war” in the Bill’o sense. But a war in the sense of I had to boycott the “trappings” of the holiday.
Despite being an atheist, I actually love Christmas music. I like seeing the lights and trees. Hey, I even [...]

I’ve got work for the next three nights, so I may not be functioning at peak blogging mode for a few days. But, since my job involves music and in light of the fact that Ike Turner (he formerly of Ike & Tina Turner) has passed away I’m offering this video in his honor: [...]

I got a beef with Mother Nature, today. Lots’o snow, lots’o cold and a whole lotta icy on the streets. I got things to do today, ya know. I do have a life outside of the blogosphere.
Speaking of blogging, I guess while I wait for the temperature to get about 15 degrees, [...]

You will have to excuse me, as I am just recently done with the watching of the “Borat” movie right now, so my snark meter is on high.
It’s snowing again in my place of blogship. That means it’s cold. It’s a good thing I was able to stock up on necessities like coffee [...]

Sometimes the weekend seems so long and yet, not long enough. It’s back to the old grindstone for many of you, so I hope you got your morning cuppa cuz I got a Ten Post Round-Up for you.
Before we begin, how about a holiday attitude adjustment? Il Divo Christmas-Mania
Still hosting the Round-Up as [...]

I hope ya’ll will forgive me for not posting over the last couple of days. Just trying to prioritize sleep into my busy schedule since I don’t have SSG Dizzy to boss around, these days, and I am in the precarious position of doing everything by myself.
Besides, aside from enjoying my work, I have been [...]

So, it’s been a while since we chatted about the fat acceptance thing.
I’ll bet you’re wondering how I’m doin’ with that.
If you aren’t wondering, then this post probably isn’t for you…check out today’s Ten Post Round-Up or proceed to the next post.
As I was saying…
I’m doing great. I have to admit, there were a [...]

Still a lot of chatter about Iran and the implications of the NIE and yet, the world still turns and every day life still goes on, as if in denial.
I have work, tonight. As my business is mostly hosting karaoke, one of my main chores is finding music that people want to sing, whether [...]

For approximately 3 minutes, I had the misfortune of seeing GWB on my television, yesterday (my son turned on the boob tube and there was America’s own personal boob…). I changed the channel almost immediately as I heard a reporter ask him about whether or not the NIE and GWB’s threats to Iran would [...]
